re: Does/would it bother you?

Ok I read what your "friend" did and I would definitely think that was weird. I can totally see why you're uncomfortable with it.

Quoting Mylittleone's (B.B.M):" I would contact the site and report it there is a button you can use on facebook when hovering over ... [snip!] ... the picture removed and simply say they are not a friend and took the pictures without permission and posted them on thier site"

Yeah. I've reported them all to FB & instagram.

So far the only one FB removed was of my child bare-assed from behind while he was peeing. "/ I would have FLIPPED Smurf on her had i known she posted that at the time it was taken. I reported it as "pornography" though, and they removed it.

I've had friends and family take photos of my son and post them but they always tag me in them. I've never found that weird and actually appreciate seeing their photos. If someone just randomly posted one without me knowing then yeah, that would be kind of strange. I could see where someone could mistakenly think it's okay to do though, especially if it's a relative. Most people mean well but it's better to be safe than sorry and nip something in the bud if you're uncomfortable with anything that's happening.

I think that this girl just doesn't think. She does what she wants and thinks of no one but herself. I'm not the only "friend" with a child that she's done it to. She has no children of her own. I mean, it would be different if it was a relative, i wouldn't mind... Or even my bestfriend, she's posted tons of pictures of my child, and my boyfriend has even posted a few. But relatives, my bestfriend, and boyfriend ALWAYS make sure that i know they're being posted and/or tag me in them. this girl though, i didnt even know the pics were taken... and like i said in a previous post, one was of my child PEEING... like...wtf?

Yeah, now that is something to wonder about. Either she's completely clueless or she has willingly ignored the fact that posting such a photo would obviously make people uncomfortable. Neither is really okay though so saying something about it is ultimately what's best.

that one was removed by FB. I reported the photos (on fb & instagram), then commented on them asking her to remove them. She texted me asking why and I told her, I didn't want them posted, period. She made a comment that they've been up for a while so if anyone were going to see them -- they already have. I just told her it didn't matter, that I wanted them taken down because I don't like people posting pictures of Patton. She said okay, that she would when she got to a computer. I'll check again tomorrow and see if they're gone, if they're not then I'll something to her again.

Definitely. There's no reason she should be so difficult about it either. It doesn't matter if people have seen them. You--the mother of this child--are asking her to remove photos and she should do just that without any questions.

Like fb...no. My Aunt takes pic's and my friends take pic's when my kids go over to sleepovers etc......and they post them up on fb all the time. And I do the same.

But with that said, it used to bother me when my oldest dd (10 yrs old) dad (deadbeat) barely around would post pic's he took of her when she was visiting his mom's house etc.....And post and put about how much he loved her and how much they have etc.....But it bothered me due to the fact he is a lying deadbeat sperm donor, and my dd doesnt even talk to him when he is there, cause she cant stand him.

But whatever, my dd is close enough with his GF and her half siblings so I let it go. But that is the only time it ever bothered me.

But obviously content of the pictures matter. Like a picture of my kids peeing, no that wouldnt be ok with me at all.

depends on the pics

Yup.

When you own a nice car, you run the risk of someone taking it.
Can't really bitch about it.





And op no it wouldn't bother me unless it was used sexually.

Quoting Lovelyyy KD*:" Does it, or would it, bother you if someone you knew took pictures of your child (or even you and your ... [snip!] ... your knowledge? would it matter if it was a relative rather than a friend? would you ask them to remove it? why or why not?"

Yes, it would bother me, unless they were taking a pic/video of my child WITH their own child like if they were babysitting or something. My MIL shares every single pic that me or any family member posts without asking us first, so I now just have her blocked from seeing the ones I put up. She has a bunch of "friends" that she only knows through playing FB games, and I'm not comfortable with that.

Quoting Lovelyyy KD*:" Here's the situation... I have a "friend" (for lack of a better word) that apparently took a crapton ... [snip!] ... had I known they were on there sooner i would've brought it up sooner sooo, i dont really know if its worth mentioning or not."

That would make me really uncomfortable, but I don't know how I would deal with it. Yikes.

Not if it was a good friend or relative I was close to. But last year DH's best friend's wife who hates me, had denied and blocked me on FB when I requested her, yet posted pictures of DS when we all went to the beach. Well she got a nasty phone call...I was pissed!

No, but I usually ask if I post a picture of a friends kid on facebook. Not that I do it often, though.

It depends on who the person is. But usually no.
